IPITS. And expect to see that I've paid off KJ 100% of the time. I don't think the times he has AT or QT are balanced enough to when he has KJ to raise at any point. I could be wrong though.

He could also have AK. There are a lot of idiots out there who hate folding AK, and he thinks hes ahead when he spikes an ace. Or AJ for that matter.. a gutshot draw and an ace is a pretty favourite calling hand for low stakes donks. Having said all that I am always super suspicious of the min check raise from a weak player, the same type of player who loves to play KJo OOP into a raise.....

I probably take the same line.

I agree with LJB, though this is not KJ 100% of the time, it is KJ alot.
Since you are getting pretty good odds to call the turn and river, I think you see a worse hand enough % of the time to make this play ok.

Yeah. I think you took the line in this hand that says, "If you have the nuts, you're going to get a few more bets out of me unless I boat up, and otherwise I'm taking a few more from you. But you're certainly not getting all of my money."

It's KJ a high percent of the time, but you certainly can't do much else. He's going to show you some shitty hands enough here to make it profitable to call him down with Top2.

I play it the same.

Villain will show up with AK, AJ, or AT as well as KJ here a lot.
